    Computer won't sleep.

    I'm having some troubles with getting my computer to sleep on Windows Vista 32-bit. You know when you click the blue orb then the little arrow and it says "Sleep." Well I always used that because it pretty much turns the PC off but then restores what ever you were doing when you hit the power button.

    Well, for some reason, a few weeks ago it went haywire. Now when I try putting it into Sleep mode it just turns off like it's going into Sleep, but automatically restarts it self.

    Does anyone have any idea on what could cause this or how to fix it? I don't really remember when it started happening nor do I really want to restore to a certain point.

    nVidia drivers can sometimes cause issues with this I think.

      Hmm.. I'll re-download and re-install, see if it helps. Do you by any chance know if the CUDA drivers can cause it. I don't think it would be CUDA because it worked for awhile after I had CUDA installed.

      Actually I'll just wait until my GTX 260 comes in and do a fresh install of those drivers.

          Alright I found the problem. My Logitech Wave keyboard was set to wake the computer up.

          If anyone is having a similar problem then open your Device Manager then right click your keyboard and select Properties. Click the Power Management tab and uncheck the box that says "Allow this device to wake the computer."
